Myoglobin is red because of the iron atoms that compose it. So is hemoglobin. But thanks for mansplaining.

A rusty crowbar is also red because of the iron atoms that compose it, but it’s not mansplaining to take issue with someone telling people they’re eating crowbars.

And thank you for trying to disingenuously conflate myoglobin and hemoglobin in an attempt to get people to think they’re eating blood when they eat meat. Glad I could correct you.
